I upgraded to LMS 8.0.0 but the 2.2 plugin Is not compatibile with New lms

Probably not incompatible as such but it's a case I haven't had time to update the repository (many plugins so it takes time) and 8.* is a bit "bleeding edge" so anybody trying could patch the install.xml to fix this issue.

PlayHLS V2.* is "native" it does not need any 3rd party application such as ffmpeg or avconv.
It also has
* no transcoding of AAC stream to player which can play AAC native - so less CPU & memory use on LMS server and less network traffic
* support HSL MP3 streams
* support HLS metadata such as track info and covert art (used a lot by iHeart US stations)

Is PlayHLS V2 still at version 2.2? I previously modified the install.xml file to make it compatible with LMS 8 and don't see any update with the new repo.

Yes - there is no code or functionality change in PlayHLS plugins.

I decided not to update version as it just enables plugin to be installed in LMS 8.* A version update would trigger unnecessary updates for all 7.* user which I reckoned would start a series of posts asking about what has been updated.
